Hollow Hunter #3

Waiting for the weather to improve is boring
so although it was raining I rigged this new
69m long midline up the hollow..

Quarry Hunter

When you have no mountains, how do you highline?


You start by getting all the OS maps for your local area
and begin hunting for disused quarry sites..


For the last 2 years I have spent a lot of time researching
the Mendip Hills area and seizing every opportunity I can to jump in
the car and explore the possible locations I have found, I really want to
try and develop the Somerset area by finding as many highline spots as
possible and hopefully establish some beautiful lines in the process..

Here are some photo's of a few places I have been hunting,
all lengths and heights are estimates for now..

I still have more place's to search but all ready I am feeling
really positive that this year (2017) will see some great lines established
and as always new lines create new adventures..
